Song of Gomer Michael Card
Hosea 1-3
[F#2] / / / / ] [ / / / / ]
[F#2]Don't know what He sees in me[G#m7], he is spirit, he is free
An[F#maj7/A#]d I, the wife of [B2]adultery[G#m7], Gomer is my [C#sus]name
[F#2]Simply more than I can see[G#m7] how he keeps on forgiving me
[F#maj7/A#] How he keeps his [B2]sanity, H[G#m7]osea, [C#]you're a f[F#2]ool
Chorus:
A[F#maj7/A#] fool to love someone like me, a [G#m7sus]fool to suffer silently
But[F#maj7/A#] sometimes through your e[B2]yes I see I'd[G#m7] rather [C#]be a f[F#2]ool
The fondness of a father, the passion of a child
The tenderness of a loving friend, an understanding smile
All of this and so much more you've lavished on a faithless whore
I've never known love like this before, Hosea you're a fool
CHORUS
This [D#m]God of your[/C#]s would [B2]not have told[/A#]
To [G#m7]lift a love that you [C#]couldn't hold
And though [D#m]time and time[/C#] aga[B2]in I flee[/A#]
I'm[G#m7] always glad to see you [C#sus]coming after me[C#]
[F#2] / / / / ] [ / / / / ] [G#m7] / / / / ] [ / / / / ]
[F#maj7/A#] [ / / / / ] [B2] / / / / ] [G#m7] / / / / ] [ C#]/ / / / ]
Simply more than I can see, how he keeps on forgiving me
The wife of adultery, and Gomer is my name
